No more ifs, no bias, no ambiguity
No wondering whether this is it Clarity to brightly shining The images so painfully absolute No edges blurred on this awareness No unknown weights to tip the knowledge scales Eyes dilated to grasp it all As ever illusion of what we are fails An unquestionable picture, determined, complete Its crystalline lines untouched by doubt So vivid, so deprived of hesitation Shining in its evil splendor The burning hatred of ma A million degrees on display Human voracity delineated The demons in us all by fumes portrayed Stare, see, take in, grasp Comprehend, assimilate, behold your reflection Its framing, gold plated lies The canvas, hurting souls caught and weaved The artist, the human dream Incinerated, devoured, deceived |

Humanity peeled from our bones
Deprived of integuments that make us real Shadows of flesh to maintain the system Our own blood splashes as we kneel So meticulously machined Into these obedient devices Puppets, fine-tuned submissive drones Replicas of each other, clones We're dormant accumulations of flesh In a crimson filtered twilight Mute witnesses to the game Wrenches to keep the bolts of lies tight We're the fabric concealing the stains, The red tainted existence The gullibles to bless your sins away Rags to wipe your blooded trails We give in to the atrophy, To the twining of self-thought knowledge The purpose of the human mind reviled Everlasting ignorance realized The scarlet flood inundates our powerless thoughts Defenseless minds with lies overfed Every thought stained, defiled Painted the color, the shade of electric red |

Beams of fire sweep through my head
Thrusts of pain increasingly engaged Sensory receptors succumb I am no one now, agony My crimson liquid so frantically spilled The ruby fluid of life unleashed Ripples ascend to the surface of my eyes Their red pens drawing at random, at will A myriad pains begotten in their wake The bastard spawn of a mutinous self The regurgitation of my micro nemesis Salivating red at the prospect of my ruin, my doom Malfunction the means for its ascent Bloodletting the stringent voice to beckon my soul So futile any resisting tension As death-induced mechanics propel its growth The implement, the device of my extinction The terminating clockwork of my gleeful bane The definitive scourge of its mockery The end-art instruments lethality attained Heed, it commands, heed my will Bleed, it says, bleed you will Falling into the clarity of undoing Scornful gods haggle for my soul Minds eye flickers and delegates as I let go Taunting whispers accompany my deletion A sneering grin, the voice of my reaper Chanting softly the song of depletion |

The void clenches its determined jaws
A lethargic, careless motion to kill Monstrous, prodigious, indifferent Slow and deliberate its torturous skills Its molars grind and shatter Onerous, leaden bringers of hurt Unhurried in its deadly intent The undoer of all, dense and inert Its design perfected through aeon's Pure, immaculate, clean, homicidal god-machine Calm, precise ambition Untroubled by the roar of unending screams, The droning blare of absolute doom The down-pitched moan of collapsing dreams Composed, cold, unconditional Uncompromising till all is death Extinction, ruin, its malicious cause Till the last exhalation of human breath |

A state of perfection, immersed in filth
Equilibrium obtained Pure in devotion to all things unwell This sweet Zen of our ill condition sustained A new belief-system salvation found in vomit and blood Where deprivation, lies, corruption, war and pain is god Balance Harmony found in the sickly, the vile Unflinching eyes, joyous and gleaming Intense in their need to watch things die A new belief-system Salvation found in vomit and blood Where deprivation, lies, Corruption, war and pain is god Decay, disgrace, disgust, our state of Zen The grime of contempt and degeneration, Sticky, foul and pungent The sediment of our creation We flourish in this blood-red soil |

Reality, this spiteful snake,
Rearing its ugly head Venom dripping from its grin As it tosses yet another obstacle in our way If given a thousand years to collect, To process, to portray We could never encompass the voracity Of one single day Trapping us in its winding, It's closing malignant cycles A tightening coil to bind us, Hold us tight in unforgiving embrace Its all-engulfing jaws, infinite, boundless Biting down on the dying flesh of hope Its fiery breath leveling, dismantling, Flattening, tearing down the structure of our dreams Overcome, defeated Terrified, shivering, mute Reality is terror, this truth is absolute Reality, this spiteful snake Shedding its smothering veil A shroud to asphyxiate, Exterminate, eradicate |

How come I shiver, hurt and bleed,
If in dreams I cannot truly feel Who would dare say, who would claim This hallucination isn't real Synaptical glitch looking glass So enticing, real and free of lies Prodigious, omnifarious In nourishes, it feeds my starving eyes Artificial the catalyst Organic its progeny Voracious spectral offspring So sweet in its hunger Unbound this new vision Optical regenesis Threatening, so complete in beautiful deformity These authoritive visions order my collective senses, My questioning, doubtful, rigid self to kneel A judas syndrome in effect Former self the deceiver Its denial the wretched kiss That kept this in disguise Cast off, the conceiling veil, The rational cloak of doubt Torn off, the restraints, The blinded's shackles Burned away, the agony, the fear, the grief A new set of eyes cleansed by a new belief |

Drooling floods of Led
Armed with distorted belief Sharp munition spat from our minds Malignancy-rounds, automatic fire Black, acidic bile Seeping wounds of shattered souls Still not pissing out fast enough To quench our thirst for it to bleed us dry Vile, ever-menacing intent Repulsive belligerence shot from toxic minds Blatant disregard for all but self Proudly flaunting the depravity of a race condemned, malign Iterate, repeat these my words Recite the mantra of late I will corrupt and impair Vitiate, dispirit, debase, violate Souls born with hateful intent The deceitful spawn, descendants of lies By the poisoned nails of history stung If granted the will to injure If granted the will to harm The blades of hurt inexhaustibly swung |

Dancers to a Discordant system
Listen to the hidden tune The essence of lies in note defined As we dance to the dissonant sway The choreography refined Will subdued and shackled Reason washed aside Pledging our love to the chains Our ignorance ever amplified Blooded hands lead the waltz We're trapped in the out of tune swirl Still we set the show on continue mode And dance to a discordant system We accept the nails we're fed Lies sharpened to bleed us silent Muted from the pains Defiance employed in vain Any attempts to leave the dance Invisibly suppressed Questions unasked, we learn the steps Eyes shut like all the rest Unsuspecting, willing, blind, controllable herd Pawns in a covert game conducted by hands we trust Dominated, compliant and deceptable Confident that we matter, we don't see that we're but dust Committed to a lie we cannot see, cannot know nor comprehend We're all asinine drones kept in the dark, kept in line Confined, bereft of reason Withering in toxicity The deadly fumes deceit And we all reek of complicity Humbled, brought to our knees By the weight of our own guilt Our innocent ways the catalyst To injustice and inhumanity We dance, to appease Compete in stupidity Obscured faces file our points Numbers fed to the machine Still we stand in line for the next show The human spine liquefied What are we, but stupefied Dancers to a discordant system We believe, so we're misled We assume, so we're played We confide, so we're deceived We trust, so we're betrayed |
